Abstract

A vehicle seat position adjusting device includes a slide adjuster (2) having a slide lock mechanism for slidably supporting a vehicle seat (1) relative to a vehicle floor and holding the vehicle seat at a predetermined position relative to the vehicle floor by restricting a relative sliding movement of the vehicle seat relative to the vehicle floor, a reclining adjuster (5) for rotatably supporting a seat back (4) of the vehicle seat about a rotational axis line (O) relative to a seat cushion (3) of the vehicle seat, and a walk in mechanism (9) disposed between the slide adjuster and the reclining adjuster for actuating the slide lock mechanism of the slide adjuster to allow the sliding movement of the vehicle seat relative to the vehicle floor when the seat back is rotated equal to or more than a predetermined angle relative to the seat cushion by operating the reclining adjuster. The vehicle seat position adjusting device is characterized in that the walk in mechanism includes a detecting plate (92) for detecting the predetermined angle or more than the predetermined angle rotation of the seat back relative to the seat cushion to the predetermined and the reclining adjuster includes a supporting surface (71b) arranged at an outer profile of the reclining adjuster in parallel to an extension direction of the rotational axis line of the seat back relative to the seat cushion.
